What's Your Water?

When provision feels finished, God often starts with what you already have.

We all complain about lack, right? (Well… most of us.)

But do you remember the wedding at Cana? John 2.

They were lacking wine to serve their guests.
Lacking provision.
Lacking fulfilment.
Lacking purpose.

Because really, isn’t part of the purpose of a wedding for the bride and groom to entertain their guests?

And then it happened: THE WINE FINISHED.

Disaster.

Imagine attending a wedding.
No, let me rephrase that…
Imagine being the bride or groom at your wedding, and the guests start complaining that there’s no food.

I don’t know about other cultures, but in Nigeria, where I come from?
You’ll immediately become the talk of the town for weeks among the oversabi aunties and the “I-too-know” uncles.

They’ll even mock you for throwing a wedding in the first place when you couldn’t provide the basic necessities for guests:

Food and drinks.

Because let’s be honest…
Most times, the primary reason guests attend a wedding is to eat.

Some don’t even know the bride and groom.
Some don’t really care.
Some don’t even wish them well.

But they all come for one common thing:

The wine.

(The same way people gravitate toward you for your value and what you have to offer.)

And then…

Boom.
No wine.

Now, situations happen; though I humbly advise you not to let that situation happen at your own wedding. (Lol.)

But then in verse 6 of John 2, Jesus gives a simple instruction:

“Fill the jars with water.”

So here’s the real question:

What’s your water?

In seasons of lack…
When provision feels thin…
When fulfilment is missing…
When purpose feels unclear, and people are looking up to you…
When there seems to be no wine…

What is the water you have?

What can God work with in your life?
What water can Christ turn into wine?

The kind of wine that makes people taste your life and say,
“This is the best version yet.” (John 2:9–10)

Think about it, sweetheart.

Those water pots were already there —
Used for ceremonial purposes,
With the ability to hold twenty to thirty gallons each [Wheww!!!]. (John 2:6)

They were just empty.
They didn’t have water yet. (John 2:7)

So again: WHAT IS YOUR WATER?

---

What talent, skill, gift, or resource do you already have?
What can God use to move you from lack to abundance?

What has God already placed in your hands that you’ve been overlooking?

Do not bury your talent; it’s God-given to bless you.

This is what the Holy Spirit placed on my heart to write today.
Let Him guide you gently into discovering what your water is.
